VisionTek Ranks Number One among AMD's North American Channel Partners

 

 

 

VisionTek graphics cards, featuring AMD's ATI Radeon technology,

rates high with hardcore gamers for advanced performance and support.

 

 

 

Inverness, IL, February 12, 2009 - VisionTek Products, LLC, a leading

consumer brand owner of advanced PC graphics cards, PC/TV tuners, and PC

accessories, became the number one North American channel partner for

AMD in 2008. Previously ranked as AMD's leading retail partner,

VisionTek's market dominance in consumer graphics cards elevated the

company's ranking in 2008. This is attributed, in part, to the superior

performance of AMD's ATI Radeon technology.

 

 

 

John Byrne, AMD Vice President of Worldwide Sales for Channel and

Regional OEM, states "It's no surprise to me that VisionTek was AMD's #1

North American consumer graphics brand in Retail for 2008. VisionTek,

as an exclusive AMD Radeon partner, has always focused on putting the

consumer's needs first, year after year! We're delighted to have them

as a partner and we'll be doing everything to continue to grow share

further in 2009."

 

 

 

VisionTek exclusively uses ATI Radeon technology to achieve its

best-in-class performance standards for graphics cards. The consistency

in product quality enables VisionTek to maintain the most extensive

product warranties in the industry.

 

 

 

"VisionTek is the only company to offer lifetime product warranties and

US-based toll free customer support," notes Michael K. Innes, VisionTek

Chief Operating Officer. "Discerning gamers trust our brand because we

stand behind our products, but ultimately they selected us because we

maintain the best performance-to-price standards in the market."

 

 

 

VisionTek plans to continue building its partnership with AMD in 2009

with new product launches that will extend the brand's dominance in the

consumer market well into the next decade. "VisionTek is a long standing

retail partner at Best Buy and leads the way with customer initiatives

in the PC graphics category" remarks Scott Wallace, Merchandise Manager

For Best Buy's PC peripheral category, "Best Buy has the highest

standards in the consumer electronics industry and it stands to reason

that our largest AMD graphics partner, VisionTek, is also AMD largest

partner for North America in 2008."

 

 

 

Leading retail establishments and online sites that capitalize on the

VisionTek brand popularity include Best Buy, Dell.com, Fry's

Electronics, Future Shop, Micro Center, Newegg.com, Tiger.com, Wal-Mart,

and other leading consumer outlets throughout the Americas.
